So, typical PC game release?
Typical? I don't remember the last time I played a game with DRM other than Steam. You're just not playing the right games.
Life is simple: it has no nontrivial normal subgroups.

Quite frankly I think the wings are the least of your problems, considering you took the word of what are effectively perfect strangers over that of your own boyfriend, which both demonstrates a severe lack of trust and a willful disregard for his opinions. Not to mention the fact that in doing so you also demonstrated that you were willing to be physically abusive and vindictive. He might forgive you, but if he gets back together with you he is, quite frankly, a bigger idiot than you.

Well I did play some EA games back in the day. Back when we had silly things like CD keys.

@Ed: There's such a thing as keygens :V You do need to delve dangerously deep into the undernet to get those though.

Yeah, now, Activision and EA go out of their way to find the most restrictive, idiotic and just plain costumer hating means they can get to DRM their shit.
As if Blizzard getting sued all over the world for the debacle that was Diablo 3's always online DRM wasn't enough.

I remember that the cd key for Planescape Torment was AK 720-93R09-ISR 6 D-G 03 V 1-PPO 34
Memorized it when my brother got the game back in 1999 for Christmas. Very first edition, just after it had come out; and I wanted to help him any way I could. I made a song to remember the CD key; and it's helped him play it on many a computer.

Keygens aren't nearly that hard to find.
Then again, I'm from south america. There are entire sites with the most obviously illegal names dedicated to piracy. We put those guys in the boats to shame at times.
And yes, the ridiculous DRM only makes it worse.

Hm, "Pest Control", now I'm thinking of a scene from Doctor Who...
Chrysalis: Princesses be warned, you have declared war on the Changelings!
Luna: This is not war, this is pest control!
Chrysalis: We have 5 million Changelings, how many are you?
Luna: 4
Chrysalis: You would destroy the Changelings with FOUR Pretty Pony Princesses?
Luna: WE WOULD DESTROY THE CHANGELINGS WITH ONE PRETTY PONY PRINCESS!!

That's what I do nowadays. The last major publisher game I bought was Bioshock.

I gotta say that was a perfect one. The four actually being four now, Luna as the Dalek, just perfect.
And yes, DRM is one of the many reasons I'm such a hipster with games.

@Calnos:
I'm inclined to believe the IDW story is just dramatics because of course Luna spent the rest of the day until the Wedding Dinner Party hunting down the last of the Changling Invasion. It's practically in-character for her :V

*pffft* Whippersnappers. I played Activision's original Pitfall on the Atari Video Computer System. It didn't get renamed the Atari 2600 until several years after I bought it. I still have that old Pitfall cartridge.

@Syd: But you haven't tried Ricochet Wars on the Huang-II Abacus, have you? I got it ported onto my modern-day abacus :V It's amazing how compatible old legacy pre-Ming abacus software still works in the 21st century ![[lol]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lol2v12_4863.png "[lol]")
